Most people experience fatigue at some point in their lives, and they say the word ‘fatigue’ in their ordinary conversational speech. The ordinary word is used as a military or engineering term and has been studied in various different disciplines, such as ergonomics, physiology, psychology, medicine, and nursing. In spite of its widespread uses, however, fatigue has not been well defined. The term of fatigue Is thus often used with different meanings and is applied in diverse contexts that had led to a confusion of ideas. In people with cancer, fatigue is reported as a major distress. Despite the importance of fatigue in cancer patients, the phenomena of fatigue is poorly understood. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to analyze the concept of fatigue in people with cancer. The process for the concept analysis was guided by Walker and Avant's conceptual analysis methodology. The identified attributes of fatigue in the present study were subjective feeling, lack of energy, sustenance, and multidimensions. The antecedents were cancer treatment and economic status. The consequences were decreased daily, vocational, leisure, and social activities, uncertainty, and difficulties in adjustment. Symptoms (pain, anorexia, and insomnia) and emotional disturbance were not clear whether they are antecedents or consequences. However, they are related with cancer related fatigue. Even though still in the beginning stage, instruments measuring cancer related fatigue have been developed by some nursing investigators.

This study concerns the understanding of 'social exclusion' which is getting poplular in Europe as the new term or paradigm in order to resolve poverty problem. As case study on the France, the purpose of this study is to extract the consideration of welfare policy and suggestions as to us. In order to understand comprehensively the concept 'social exclusion' and the situation of the France, this study analyzes the existing researches on its concept and tries to realize a comparative study. Thus, this study indicates that the France is the state which has taken the most interest in 'social exclusion'. The second parti of this study concerns the change of the concept 'social exclusion' and its policies in the France. The concept 'social exclusion' which has used in the 1960's, has settled as the term of policies in the 1980's, thanks to seriousness of poverty and unemployment problem and change of social consciousness (opinion). As policy on the 'social exclusion', there are Revenu minimum d'insertion of the 1988 and law on the social exclusion of the 1998. Through analysis of policies on the 'social exclusion' in the France, we can get the following consideration of welfare policy and suggestions: on the macro level, the necessity to establish the comprehensive perspective on the poverty problem, invention and development of the term as regard to social new problem; on the micro lever, planning of welfare program according to clients needs, importance of perpetual assessing of the existing welfare program and institutions, the institutional establishment of 'reserve budget', the application of decentralization principle and the active participation of the private sector in order to promote the effectiveness and the efficiency of the program and institutions.

Since Takeo Toi's discussion in The Anatomy of Dependence (1973), the concept of amae has generated considerable interest in the fields of psychology, anthropology, communication and other fields. However, there have been few agreements on the definition and functions of amae (Behrens, 2004). Furthermore, it has rarely drawn interest from linguists in general and has rarely been discussed in the context of social interaction. This study aims to examine the concept of amae in Japanese and the corresponding phenomena in Korean, and attempts to explore the similarities and differences between them. The prototype of the amae relationship is the mother-infant relationship (Doi,1973). Even an adult can assume the role of a baby, showing his or her need for dependence on others and expecting to be accepted. It turns out that amae-like phenomena frequently occur in everyday life in Korea as well (Lee, 1982). There is no single term for the concept, but it can be translated in many different ways in Korean, for example, aykyo, ayang, ungsek, erikwang, etc. It can have either positive or negative connotations depending on the situation. It seems that the psychological system that causes dependent behaviors such as ungsek in Korea is cheong, one of the key terms characterizing the Korean culture. Cheong, like amae, starts in the mother-infant relationship extending to familial and to other relationships. A corpus-based analysis shows that cheong is conceptualized as gluing people together, growing over time, and also potentially fatal because it assumes illogical, uncalculated, and personal relationships. In conclusion, unlike some Japanese scholars' claim that amae is the Japanese concept that exists only in Japan, it seems that similar phenomena do exist in Korea as well, but that Korean has no single term corresponding to amae in Japanese. It seems that cheong can be posited in Korean as the inner emotional system that makes amae-like behaviors possible, and that there is not single term, but many, designating the behaviors, possibly because the behaviors have a negative connotation and are not encouraged in Korean society.

International organizations related to air transport such as ICAO, IATA, ACI are forecasting that the number of passenger will grow about 4.4% annually up to 2015. Therefore, the innovation of given system technology and operation procedure is required in global scale to cope with the increase of air traffic demand. CNS/ATM infrastructure based on satellite is considered to play key role in order to solve the problems due to the dramatic increase of air traffic demand over the world. Free flight concept in the air transport operation has been proved with CNS/ATM infrastructure especially in USA and Europe. Therefore, it is necessary to develop key technologies to overcome technology gap and to secure international competitiveness in Korea. ADS-B is an important issue, and new element technologies should be considered as essential items which were shown in Capstone project. Nowadays, the free flight concept is combined to Air Transport Road Map such as NextGen project in USA, SESAR in Europe. In this process, free flight is included in the concepts such as ATM(Air Traffic Management), aviation security and safety, environmental protection and economy development, wide area weather variable reduction service, information integration and application between the related authorities (civil/military) etc. The purpose of research is to establish mid-term and long-term infrastructure plan and strategy for free flight realization in Korea. The analysis of action target and equipment construction status, phase construction plan of infrastructure has been performed by considering mid-term and long-term free flight plans of USA and Europe.

First of all corner is an essential element to consist the space, but there is not much solid study and basic concept on the corner. The most important reason is the lack of the concept on the corner. The definition of corner by itself carries the term of space. Accordingly arguing the corner in space is to characterize the space. The corner is an important element to build up the space. The purpose of this study is to give a definition on the comer in space and suggest the way of practical use. The corner in space began to transform after Cubism. Therefore this study is bounded after Cubism era. The focus of study on plastical expression properties is on the view point by each era and constitutional point of view. In conclusion, the concept of corner has been switched from the concept of structure to concept of decoration. Also, study found that the concept of corner has the ideology, medium, and characteristics of boundary.

The purpose of this paper is to deeply understand the developing of long-term relationship between salesperson and customer through analyzing of various literature. Salespersons are important due to their forefront position in retailing setting. They are called \"relationship manger\" due to their function of controlling service quality. Therefore understanding the salesperson-customer relationship is critical in retail environment. To accomplish the purpose of this paper, at first, the concept of relationship marketing and the domain of relationship marketing is examined. Then long-term relationship is studied through existing study on buyer-seller relationship. Anticipation of future interaction or long-term relationship orientation is generated from antecedent variables through mediating variables. Though previous studies ignored developing status of long-term relationship, developing status must be captured to thoroughly understand interpersonal relationship. Implication for relationship marketing theory and research are discussed related to clothing retail setting.l setting.

We propose a novel technique to categorize XML documents and extract a concept efficiently using domain ontology. First, we create domain ontology that use text mining technique and statistical technique. We propose a DScore technique to classify XML documents by using the structural characteristic of XML document. We also present TScore technique to extract a concept by comparing the association term set of domain ontology and the terms in the XML document. To verify the efficiency of the proposed technique, we perform experiment for 295 papers in the computer science area. The results of experiment show that the proposed technique using the structural information in the XML documents is more efficient than the existing technique. Especially, the TScore technique effectively extract the concept of documents although frequency of term is few. Hence, the proposed concept-based retrieval techniques can be expected to contribute to the development of an efficient ontology-based knowledge management system.

An innovative safety concept for a light water reactor has been developed at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute. It is a unique concept that adopts both a fast heat transfer mechanism for a small containment and a changing mechanism of the cooling geometry to take advantage of the potential, thermal, and dynamic energies of the cold water in the containment. It can bring about rapid cooling of the containment and long-term cooling of the decay heat. By virtue of this innovative concept, nuclear fuel damage events can be prevented. The ultimate heat transfer mechanism contributes to minimization of the heat exchanger size and containment volume. A small containment can ensure the underground construction, which can use river or seawater as an ultimate heat sink. The changing mechanism of the cooling geometry simplifies several safety systems and unifies diverse functions. Simplicity of the present safety system does not require any operator actions during events or accidents. Therefore, the unique safety concept of PX can realize both economic competitiveness and inherent safety.
